We'll be introducing chum salmon into the lower reaches - that's what was there historically.

It's never been an area where salmon could reach.

Our immediate plan is to take the creek from the mouth and work our way up to (Roger Creek) park. We'll do some riparian planting and some rock placement.

What we have now is a world-class stream, right in the shadow of Wal-Mart.

The move is expected to ensure a safe water quality at the lower reaches of the river.

A pandemic historically lasts up to two years and comes in waves.
